Emily Marchetta has been promoted to Director of Content & Partnerships at Lighthouse Health & Wellness, a move that will advance to new heights the organization’s mission to provide high quality, culturally relevant wellness resources to first responders. This announcement comes at a strategic time for the organization, as Lighthouse H&W has recently begun collaborating with FirstNet, Built with AT&T®, and has many dynamic projects under way.

Since 2020 Marchetta has served as Lighthouse H&W’s Content Manager, supporting the Lighthouse Library of Wellness Content, developing and launching the organization’s two monthly newsletters, coordinating the Content Contributor Program, and more. She will continue to oversee these projects while expanding her influence on new initiatives.

With the recent announcement of Lighthouse H&W’s collaboration with FirstNet, built with AT&T, many exciting new projects are on the horizon for Lighthouse, requiring both creative vision and an eye for detail. FirstNet is built with AT&T in public-private partnership with the First Responder Network Authority, an independent agency within the federal government. It is the only nationwide, high-speed broadband communications platform dedicated to and purpose-built for America’s first responders and the extended public safety community. AT&T’s founding sponsorship of Lighthouse strengthens and expands the impact of each organization’s mission. With AT&T’s support, Lighthouse Health & Wellness will be able to greatly accelerate wellness outreach efforts to first responders across the nation, expand its no-cost custom app development program, and continue to evolve the Lighthouse H&W Resource Library. This will further Lighthouse’s declared mission to foster the discovery, development and distribution of health and wellness tools and information that address the unique challenges faced by first responders and those who support them.

“Emily has been a key figure in the rapid growth of Lighthouse. In this new role, we look forward to her leading the charge as we strengthen and expand our content and partnership programs. ” Joe Ramirez, Founder of Lighthouse Health & Wellness.

A critical component to Lighthouse H&W’s success is maintaining a constant stream of fresh content that is relevant, culturally competent, and up to date. The promotion of Marchetta to Content Director provides the organization with a seasoned content strategist who has deep expertise across several communication segments, including case studies, white papers, drip marketing campaigns, website taxonomy, journalism, PR, branding, collateral development, and more.

She spent over ten years with the company, specializing in content development and marketing strategy in the health vertical, including working high-profile web properties with millions of monthly views such as WebMD, SoberRecovery.com, HealthBoards.com, and JustMommies.com.

Having already developed Lighthouse H&W’s Content Contributor program, composed of a growing network of high-profile content contributors who are true subject matter experts in the field of public safety wellness, expanding Marchetta’s role into partner relations was a natural next step. “Having support from organizations like FirstNet provides incredible opportunities for mutually beneficial collaboration,” Marchetta said. “I’m thrilled to be working with organizations who share Lighthouse’s mission and can have a significant positive impact on the lives of first responders nationwide. The creative possibilities are truly exciting.”
